KALAKA 



The Wizard Lawn Producer 



Takes the place of Seed and Fertilizer 



How much better a green, well-kept lawn looks. 

 You no longer need bother and wait, only to be re- 

 warded by a few feeble, short-lived blades of grass. 

 Sow your ground with 



Kalaka 



and have a velvet lawn of permanent green. The most 

 wonderful evolution of modern agricultural methods. 

 Saves time — saves trouble — saves expense. 

 All Kalaka needs is water. Choicest seeds obtain- 

 able, scientifically blended with just the proportion of 

 rich pulverized dried animal manures required by 

 nature to produce a turf of fine, hardy grass and a 

 lawn of close, firm and lasting green. Lawns with 

 shady spots— wornspots — sun baked spots— spots of all 

 kinds where the vegetation is scanty, can be immedi- 

 ately put in shape. Kalaka, the Wizard Lawn Pro- 

 ducer, for "putting greens" on golf links can't oeieat. 

 If your dealer cannot supply you, send us his 

 name and mail us One Dollar(Si.oo) and we will send 

 you, express prepaid, to any part of the United States 

 a five pound package, enough to sow 1,000 square feet 

 of new lawn or renew 2,000 square feet of old lawn. 

 Costs less than common seed — goes further — and pro- 

 vides seed and fertilizer -with one application. Used 

 by the largest public park systems in the country.
